Why is oxygen needed for the final step in cellular respiration?
Oxygen is the final electron acceptor. Oxygen, with it's great electronegativity, pulls electrons through the electron transport chain where these electrons provide the motive force to pump protons into the outer lumen of the mitochondria. When these protons fall down their concentration gradient oxygen is there to pick then up with the electrons and form water.
Which part of cellular respiration will provide the squirrel with most of the energy it needs to escape?
the electron transport chain
Which reactions of aerobic respiration occur in the inner mitochondrial membranes?
Chemiosmosis and the electron transport chain's process
When light strikes chlorophyll molecules they lose electrons which are ultimately replaced by other electrons obtained by?
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_are_electrons_lost_by_chlorophyll_molecules_replaced"They are replaced by electrons donated from water molecules which were split by enzymes in the thylakoids inside chloroplasts.
What is the direct energy source that drives ATP synthesis during respiratory oxidative phosphorylation?
The difference in H+ concentrations on opposite sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane. During oxidative phosphorylation, NADH and FADH oxidizes at the hydrogen carriers to provide electrons to the electron transport chain (etc) (chain of electron carriers) and H+ ions. As electrons pass through the etc, ATP is synthesized. If energy is ever needed along the process, ATP is used. But i doubt it as the electron do not require external chemical energy to move along the carriers.

the electron transport chain
Most of the NADH that delivers high-energy electrons to the electron transport chain comes from?
The Citric Acid Cycle or also know as the Kreb Cycle.

What are electrons in?
They help to provide serium to the qualxium through process of molecular transport type A.
What mineral is vital for making the chlorophyll molecule?
At the center of the chlorophyll molecule is a single magnesium atom. It is surrounded by alternating double and single bonds. The double bounds provide the electrons that flow through the electron transport chain.
What are electrons involved in?
They help to provide serium to the qualxium through process of molecular transport type A.
What is a sentence for electrons?
Electric waves are produced wherever electrons are accelerated or retarded, that is, whenever the velocity of an electron is changed or accelerated positively or negatively.
How is the energy used to make ATP via the electron transport chain generated?
It is enerated in plants during the process photophosphorylation (aka. photosynthesis) It is generated in plants through the process of photophosphorylation, in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
A rabbit is running away from an approaching hawk. Which part of cellular respiration will provide the rabbit with most of energy it needs to escape?
The electron transport chain provides the most energy.
What is the functions of electrons in the electron transport chain?
Basically, to provide the motive force so that protons can be pumped into the outer lumen of the mitochondria. There they will fall down their concentration gradient through the ATP-synthase, thus generating ATP.
How is proton gradient established?
A proton gradient is established with an electron transport chain, where energy from electrons is donated from an high-energy source (such as food) to provide intracellular enzymes the energy to pump protons across an impermeable membrane in order to form a region with a high concentration of protons. Hope this helps! :)
